Deigo Flower Photos and a Sweet Tune

Early yesterday afternoon, under some harsh sunlight, I couldn't resist taking these photos.

A wide angle view shows the surrounding hills in the background just off HWY 58.

These flowers, are fairly delicate and may not last much longer.

The first, little typhoon, that comes along, will blow all the red petals away.

So, I hurried and snapped photos from every angle.

Just in case, we don't get back up that way, in the near future.
